Finally defeated my nemesis in the Operation Seraph's Shield: Gravity. In Space.
I did Operation Seraph's Shield solo and flawless today on Legendary difficulty. Finally.
It never was the enemies that spoiled my previous runs. It was the jumping outside of the space station. It was...Space Gravity!
For some reason, instead of drifting gracefully through the weightless vastness of space when you leap, in Destiny's universe, you plummet like a stone as soon as you miss a jump.
Jump from the skiff to the platform below. Oops! Landed too hard. Splat. Get knocked back by an enemy and fall to my doom - check. Misjudge a jump to another platform, and again, it's another plummeting flameout from orbit time.
I've always been terrible at jumping puzzles but the presence of gravity in space in this game really throws me off for some reason. Cognitive dissonance, maybe?
Anyway, it has ended many an attempt at a flawless run during space-based missions (yeah, Presage mission, I'm looking at you too).
But not today Space Gravity! Your reign of terror is over and I went flawless. Life is good!

9 RepliesWell done on your flawless. I was making my first legit attempt at a solo flawless on legendary several hours ago. I definitely wasn't setting any speed records, that's for damn sure. Still, I managed to get past the brigs, the part I was certain would bring my flawless run to an abrupt halt. During the spacewalk, I reached the point where 2 hive knights were on the narrow platform hugging the side of the station. I put them down and was taking a moment to heal up a bit......BLAM! A -radio edit- sniper shank I hadn't noticed was there plugged me. Of all things, A SHANK! After I proceeded to use a multitude of words that aren't appropriate for church, I continued on to get my first solo completion on Legend. Honestly, I think I would've rather one of the knights stomped up and kicked me in the meat and potatoes, sending me plummeting back to Earth. So humiliating.
